Look at your own risk!!! I suggest that you don't look unless you have an empty stomach.

Link goes to Google search page so you have to make the decision to look at this.

Paul, Your sig line doesn't make me think it would bother you.

Try responding to a minivan accident where you have to sort out all the family members parts into separate bags...

Well, it didn't make me puke or anything.. but... kind of crazy...

My sisters step son helped bag up an airplane crash. Smaller plane, less than a dozen. All the families wanted their own relative back, and having seen CSI and other related shows, got mad when they couldn't sort them all out in 22 minutes....

A nasty business these crashes.
